Helpers need support too.
Therapists and helping professionals are not immune to stress and struggle. This work is sacred, and it is hard. Sometimes the realities of life make it difficult to do this work. And of course, this role changes you.
None of us should work in isolation. We are healthier people and do better work when we are supported.
I support therapists and helping professionals with:
self care and life balance
creating boundaries that work for you
difficult experiences of countertransference
compassion fatigue
secondary trauma and PTSD
burnout
